THIS TUTORIAL WORKS FOR 1.1.2 & 1.1.3 OUT OF THE BOX IPHONES

Hi every1

First of all i wanted to thank every1 who sent me appreciation emails for the tutorial i wrote [1.1.2 OTB] Downgrade/Activate/Jailbreak MADE EASY (For Newbies).

I come to you today with a new tutorial, an updated one that incorporates the SIM UNLOCK that was released today

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


For those who dont know what each work means ...

DOWNGRADE : go from firmware 1.1.2 to firmware 1.1.1
ACTIVATE: Bypass the AT&T activation to have access to all the functions in the iphone
JAILBREAK: gives you the ability to install 3rd party applications on the iphone.




STEP 1 - DOWNLOAD NECESSARY FILES

First Download the apple 1.1.1 firmware file
http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite....a_Restore.ipsw

Second Download Ibrickr if you are using Windows or 1.1.2 jailbreak for Mac

Ibrickr : http://ibrickr.com/downloads/ibrickr_v0.91.zip

1.1.2 jailbreak : http://conceitedsoftware.com/iphone/1.1.2-jailbreak.zip




STEP 2 - DOWNGRADE FROM 1.1.2 TO 1.1.1

At this step if you dont have Itunes installed on your Computer please visit the apple website and download and install Itunes

- Next Plug your USB in your computer and in your iphone, Itunes will automatically open and give you an ACTIVATION page

-Now press the MENU BUTTON and THE POWER BUTTON at the same time and keep pressing them until Itunes tells you that it has detected that your Iphone is in recovery Mode, this could take something from 10 seconds to 30 seconds, so keep pressing both buttons until you get the message

- Once you get the message dismiss the warning message in Itunes (Itunes has detected .....) by pressing OK and now you have 2 options , the first is Search for Updates and the second, that we will use is RECOVER

BEFORE YOU PRESS ON THE RECOVER BUTTON YOU NEED TO PRESS YOUR SHIFT BUTTON IN WINDOWS (OPTIONS BUTTON IN MAC) AND THEN PRESS RECOVER

Now a "Browse your files" window will open, go and chose the firmware 1.1.1 file you have downloaded in step 1 and press open

now Itunes will start downgrading your iphone (this takes some time) and the downgrade process will end up with an error message 1013 or 1015 THIS IS VERY NORMAL

-Next if you are using Windows Open Ibrickr (You have to Unzip Ibrickr.zip onto a Folder preferably on your desktop and then run ibrickr.exe) and chose the Option "Reboot my Iphone" to kick your Iphone out of the Recovery Mode (If your iphone screen turns red after pressing the reboot button then everything is OK ,if you have a green screen then you have to restart the tutoarial)

-ON MAC use iNdependence to kick the phone out of recovery mode http://independence.googlecode.com/

Now you iphone will restart and you will have an ACTIVATION PAGE on your iphone with the nice round WOrld image.




STEP3 - ACTIVATE AND JAILBREAK


Before you complete this part MAKE SURE that the AT&T Sim card is in your phone

Now, you are on the activation screen that says slide to make an emergency call, slide to get to the keypad and then do the following:


Dial *#307# and hit call

The iPhone will now start to ring itself, once it start to ring you have to erase *#307# by using the backslash button on your iphone and then type 0 and then CALL, the iphone will ring again and this time hit "Answer" then hit "Hold", the Phone will start to ring itself again, this time click "Decline".

Now on the screen you should be able to get to the contacts menu down the bottom, tap "Contacts" and then add a contact. Use the following instructions:


Add the Name "Testing" and tap save ( you can add any name it's not important)
Tap "Add URL" and type "prefs://1F" then tap save
Tap "Add URL" again and type "jailbreakme.com" then tap save

When this is done, tap "Save" again and it will take you to the contact page displaying the name "Testing" and the two URLs you just added. Tap the "prefs://1F" URL and it will open the iPhone Settings page.

Tap "General" and Then "Auto-Lock", set it to "Never".

Go back to the settings page

From here, tap WiFi and Add your WiFi network and make sure you are connected to it

Now, hit the Menu button to go back to the Activation Screen, slide and dial the number 0, the iPhone will now ring itself again, tap answer, then hold, then decline just like before.

Now, hit contacts again and then Testing, this time go to the "jailbreakme.com" URL
Safari will open and loan the page, scroll to the bottom and click on "Install AppSnapp".

Safari will now close and your iPhone will now go back to the Activation Screen.

Once you get to the activation screen slide to get to the dial pad again and when you do this iPhone will restart by itself and thats it, your now Activated and JailBroken.



STEP4 - SIM UNLOCK YOUR IPHONE

- Go into installer, after your sources refresh if there are any updates available please go ahead and install them.

Once they are installed make sure that you go in SOURCES and press REFRESH

When the refresh is done go into ALL PACKAGES and scroll down until you find BSD SUBSYSTEM and install it.

When the installation is done press your HOME button, you will be taken to the SLIDE TO UNLOCK screen, slide and unlock and go into the INSTALLER, Press the INSTALL button, scroll down to TWEAKS (1.1.3) locate the file called 1.1.2-1.1.3 OTB G-UNLOCK

-INSTALL IT !!!! (DONT FORGET TO PRESS THE "HOME" BUTTON ONCE THE INSTALLATION IS DONE)



STEP4 - UPGRADE TO FIRMWARE 1.1.2 & ACTIVATE AND JAILBREAK

-Download the 1.1.2 Firmware file from HERE

-Click on INSTALLER on your iphone (Blue Icon usually the last one)
If you are asked to update your Installer please do it (if you updated don't forget after the update installs press the HOME button, it will take you back to the SLIDE TO UNLOCK page )

-Now open your ITUNES on your PC or MAC and press on the name of your IPHONE in the left colum, this will take you to the page with UPDATE or RESTORE buttons

On your IPHONE clicK on INSTALLER and press on TWEAKS 1.1.1 and press and install Oktoprep, once it is installed it will give you a message on your iphone saying "YOUR PHONE IS NOW READY TO BE UPGRADED TO 1.1.2 ........" press OK and then press the HOME button and it will take you back to the SLIDE TO UNLOCK.

-Your ITUNES is still open on your PC or MAC now press SHIFT on your keyboard and then UPDATE and ITUNES will open a browse window. Point to the 1.1.2 FIRMWARE file that you downloaded earlier and press OPEN.

Itunes will update your iphone to FIRMWARE 1.1.2 and this time you will not get an error message like the last time when u downgraded to 1.1.1, You will get a msg telling you "Your iphone was successfuly Updated to 1.1.2"

When the Update is finished you will get a picture of a plug that will appear on your iPhone and you will have the page SLIDE TO UNLCOK written in different languages

-Close ITUNES on your PC or MAC

-download and unzip 1.1.2 Jailbreak from here http://conceitedsoftware.com/iphone/1.1.2-jailbreak.zip

-In the Folder you will find the file jailbreak.jar Open it and press on JAILBREAK!
(IF JAILBREAK.JAR DOESNT OPEN UPDATE YOUR JAVA HERE

This will take some time and at the end you will get a message that says "Your Phone will reboot a couple of times ...... "

Let your phone REBOOT a couple of time... And you will get back to the SLIDE to UNLOCK page

YOU ARE DONE !!!!
YOU HAVE AN ACTIVATED AND JAILBROKEN and SIM UNLOCKED 1.1.2 IPHONE

AT THIS POINT YOU CAN ALWAYS UPDATE TO 1.1.3 USING THE DEV TEAM METHOD AND THE UNLOCK WILL STAY BUT I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT SINCE 1.1.3 HAS STILL ALOT OF BUGS

It work me all, but in the last the iphone doesn't reboot :S what I have to do?

I Have My Iphone Jailbroken With Your First Method, And Now I Want To Unlock It. Do I Have To Do All The 4 Steps Of This Method???

And I'm From Malta, Ih Have To Download Iworld?

10x

yes because you will have to run the unlock on the 1.1.1 and then oktoprep and then udate to 1.1.2

iam getting an error.


After i oktoprep, and update the firmware to 1.1.2

This error comes up

"jailbreak Failed"
"this utility can only be used if you have already run oktoprep before updating to 1.1.2"


Please help

Make sure you UPDATE not RESTORE to 1.1.2

__________________

When I downgrade to 1.1.1 I lose Wifi, when I upgrade again to 1.1.2 I have it.
Is there anyway I can add Installer Apps from 1.1.2 or from windows?

Later on down the road, is it still possible to activate through AT&T?

I'm thinking probably yes since 1.1.3 upgrades the baseband, and this is what the g-unlock software does.

Just want to make sure this is reversable if needed.

Thanks!

make sure u upgrade (shift + update) NOT shift+restore
